Disadvantages of wooden paddle boats

The disadvantages of wooden sculling boats mainly include the following points:

1. Slow speed: wooden sculling boats are usually used in narrow rivers, and the speed of wide rivers is slower.

2. High labor intensity: Rocking the oar requires manual force, which is highly labor intensive and requires certain skills and experience.

3. Affected by the weather: Wooden sculling boats may be difficult to maneuver or travel in windy, rainy days or turbulent currents.

4. Relatively low safety: Due to the slow speed, it may be difficult for wooden paddle boats to respond quickly when encountering an emergency, so the safety is relatively low.

Although the wooden paddle boat has some disadvantages, it also has many advantages, such as being lightweight, durable, and suitable for use in rivers and lakes. In the past, wooden sculling boats were widely used in cargo transportation, personnel transportation, fishing and leisure entertainment. At the same time, the wooden paddle boat is also a traditional boat with cultural value, representing people's respect and inheritance of traditional culture.
